George has $15. He would like to know if he has enough money to see a movie ($9.00) and buy a pretzel ($2.65), a drink ($1.35),

and two veggie cups ($1.74 each). George incorrectly used this numerical expression to decide if he had enough money.
15 - 9 + 2.65 + 1.35 + 2(1.74)

Use the order of operations to simplify this expression.

Answer:

Yes, he has enough money and your simplified answer is below. If I'm wrong correct me or give me a comment.

Step-by-step explanation:

15 - 9 + 2.65 + 1.35 + 2(1.74) Multiply first.

15 - 9 + 2.65 + 1.35 + 3.48  Then just add or subtract from the left to the right

6 + 2.65 + 1.35 + 3.48

8.65 + 1.35 + 3.48

10 + 3.48

13.48 would be the simplified answer.

78 : 120 :: ? : 66<br>please give answer with explanation<br>​
yawa3891 [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Method</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>:</u>

Given that:

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Here,

Product of extremes = 78 and 66

Product of means = 120 and ?

so,

(78*66) = (120 * ?)

⇛5148 = 120 * ?

⇛5148 = 120?

⇛120? = 5148

Shift the number 120 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign.

⇛? = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

<u>Method</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>:</u>

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Convert each ratio into fraction.

⇛78/120 = ?/66

On applying cross multiplication then

since, (a/b) = (c/d) ⇛cd = ad

Where, a = 78, b = 120, c = ? and d = 66

Now,

⇛(120)? = (78)66

⇛120? = 5148

⇛(?) = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

<u>Ans</u><u>w</u><u>er:</u> Hence the value of (?) for the given problem is 42.9.

<u>Verification</u><u>:</u>

Check whether the value of (?) is true or false.

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Substitute the value of (?).

⇛78:120 = 42.9:66

Product of extremes should be equal to product of means.

Product of extremes:- 78*66 = 5148

Product of means:- 120*42.9 = 5148

⇛5148 = 5148

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.

Find the simple interest earned to the nearest cent for each principal, interest rate, and time.
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Interest earned at 3.9 percent rate is $31.2

Interest earned at 2 percent rate is $5.8

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P(1 + rt)

Where 'A' is the amount, 'r' is the rate and 't' is the time in years

When;

P = $1200

r = 3.9%

t = \frac{8}{12} years

Then,

A = $1200(1 + 0.039(\frac{8}{12}))

A = $1200 + $31.2 = $1231.2

Interest = Amount - Principal

Interest earned at 3.9 percent rate is $1231.2 - $1200 = $31.2

When;

P = $580

r = 2%

t = \frac{6}{12} years

Then,

A = $580(1 + 0.02(\frac{6}{12}))

A = $580 + $5.8 = $585.8

Interest earned = Amount - Principal

Interest earned at 2 percent rate = $585.8 - $580 = $5.8
